-DHCP means Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol and is a part of application layer. A DHCP server has a number of IP address in its memory to assign for the computers/hosts on a network.…
When PC’s are booted up, they automatically start looking for the DHCP server on the network. The server, once contacted sends out a message offering an IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, etc. The PC then essentially says back to the server, “ok, I got it”.…

Dynamic DNS is defined as a method of automatically updating a name server in the Domain Name System (DNS), often in real time, with the active DNS configuration of its configured hostnames, addresses or other information.…
There are two very important tools to use in Networking. They are Domain Name System (DNS) and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). These help keep your Network organized while building it. A DNS is a system used to name computers and network services that is organized into a hierarchy of domains. It can help locate computers and services through user names. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol allows a server to automatically assign IP addresses to a computer from a certain range of numbers configured for that network. These two tools work as the foundation for IT-Management.…
The DHCP server would have the responsibility of assigning IP addresses to the client computers and other devices that are enabled as DHCP clients. This will eliminate the need to manually assign IP addresses to all users and devices on the network. This main server will also serve as storage for Active Directory and user account management.…
DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. DNS stands for Domain Name Server. What these two concepts do is get a unique identifier known as a (MAC address) from any computer. When the DHCP gets the MAC address from a computer it provides an IP address for that computer allowing it to access the Internet. When the computer accesses the Internet the DNS memorizes IP addresses of websites that a computer users wishes to. The reason DNS does this is because all of the websites have domain names. Domain names are translated to IP addresses. One example is Facebook. www.facebook.com is 31.13.70.81. Instead of users trying to memorize this IP Address, it just makes it easier to access Facebook or even all the IP addresses that users visit. DNS makes internet surfing easier just using alphabetic letters for easy access.…

DNS converts common domain names into IP addresses to route data to the correct destination over the internet without having the user provide the exact IP address.…
The process of obtaining an IP address for a computer name (for example, “ComputerA”) is called name resolution.…
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol: A TCP/IP protocol that uses a client-and-server model of communication, with messages that allow a client to ask the server to loan or lease to the client the use of an IP address for some period of time.…
Domain Name System (DNS) and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) are two things that have made anyone in the IT field’s life a lot easier. Fortunately for us, these two protocols can be implemented together or separately depending on the size and configuration of the network. So, let’s justify the use of DHCP in different scenarios.…
Today the Internet and the means to access the Internet has changed radically from the days of the modem. We now use lightning fast networks that include broadband, T1, satellite and digital wireless connections. The modernization of network technology has enabled the invention of cell phones, and other devices that allow users to access the Web and other networks from almost anywhere in the world and beyond.…
